Google needs to focus on building up its AI business while also keeping costs under control. Building up its AI business needs to be a top priorityThe events of the last few days show Microsoft and Google are clearly in an AI arms race — one that Google needs to win for its own sake.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg failed to anticipate a newer trend in social networking that contributed to the success of rival TikTok. In an interview published Wednesday in analyst Ben Thompson's Statechery newsletter, the Facebook founder said he "sort of missed" a newer way that people "interact with discovered content" via social networking services. People are increasingly using their social networking "feeds" to discover compelling content as opposed to viewing the media shared by the friends that they follow, he explained. TikTok's rise has posed a significant challenge to the company, which is experiencing a decline in North American Facebook users, and a stock price that's lost more than 56% this year so far. Zuckerberg also believes it's important for Meta to develop AI that can recommend a range of content including photos and text to users besides just short videos.
